' - 'a-Lsi DIVISION OF' TIlE ROAD FUND City anti County in Oou Over the New Law's Application. ARGUMENTS PRESENTED YESTERDAY Atortis tnke a Sliovingr of Their Jaterprejimfiori of Ilic Statute ahtil Cinart Tnkcs the Uattcr. Under AiI' IMeJICftt. - In the district court yesterdy afternoon Judge Smith litteoed to the -arguments in the suit brought by time city to thpel. the Board of County Supervisors to expcnii time. portion of the county road fund as derivett from taxation of property within the city limits according to the directions of the city council , Time city was represented ly City Solicitor Wadsworth and the Board of Supervisors by County Attorney Saunders. The arguments occupied a little over an hour. The argument of City Solicitor Wadsworth was practically a presentation of the city's side of the case n.e set forth in the petition. I lie contended that time new code provided that the portion of the road fund collected from the taxation of property within the I city should only be expended by the supervisors - visors at the direction ot time city council , wlmich should have absolute say as to where and in what manner it should be expended. County Attorney Saunders opposed the po- sitlon taken by the city and contended that the word "direction" In time statute simply I macant that the city should have power to direct as to the manner in which the work simould be done , but that it did not intend to convey to the council the authority to die- tate where. County Attorney Saunders also contended that nIl of the tax sought to be controlled by tim cIty having been levied prior to the ocw law going into effect was not affected by the new code. ZtIr , Saunders stated that tim county board was about to expend all of the road tax eoi- lected for the year 1897 from Kane township - ship in the improvemept of time streets of Council Bhimife and upon the roads leading into the city and that no expenditure of tim fund would be made upon any road beyond a point seven miles distant from tile city. lIe claimed that the city , if it secured control - trol of the fund , intended spending it tipon ( ho cleanIng and not lnmprovement of the streets. Judge Smith took the case under advise- macnt , but gave no Intimation as to how soon his decision aught be looked for. Time forthcoming issue of the Class Look of ' 98 , CouncIl Bluffs High school , will be one of exceptional interest and merit. The body of the work is being comnpiled by the pupils of time class , who nrc making excellent - lent effort in this line , and the artistic designs - signs for the cover and title-pages are from ( lie pen of 0110 of their own members.

END OF A LONG CONTESTED DIFFERENCES liliTcet of tile leeislon is to Make Gem' eriml l'rhine Colonel of tIle I Flfty-'i'hiiruI louts Voiuiitccrii , DES MOINES , May 28.-Spcclal ( Teic- gram.-Tlme ) famous Prime-Guest case was disposed of by the supreme court today , but the Public is to be denied tine particulars I that are furnished by a written opinion. Tine six judges were divided equaiiy on the case , donsequently no opinion was flied and the public is left in the dark as to time IMints upon which they failed to agree. A8 a result of this state of affairs time decision of time lower court stands afliramed , Tine details of the case arc well known , Tine troubie arose over tue election for brigadier general of tine FIrst belgado of the Iowa National' Guard held February 24 , 1S96. It wai , determined that no cammdidate re'ei"etl a majority of the votes cast and a second election was ordered to be held oil March 25 , 1896. The last election re- suIted in John K. Prime receiving a majority - jority of the votes cast , and upon that an- noumncement suit was brought in the courts to compel the issuance of a certificate of 1ection to James A. Guest , on the ground thnat he had been duly elected at the time otf.tht.frq ) olecton. On Januay .9 , 1St7 , Judge Spurner of''Polk dounty district issued an order of mandamus directing and commanding defendants to re-canvass time result of the election held March 25 , 1806 , and to count for each of the respective - tivo candidates for such office 'of brigadier general all the votes appearing by said cc- suits to have been cast for such candidates , IncludIng the previously rejected , anti to issue a commission in accordance therewitin in due form as prescribed by law. Fronm this action of the lower court an appeal was taken , with the result as already described. The effect of the decision will , in the opinion of military circles , make General Prime colonel of tine Fifty-third Iowa volun- teers. The record of the supreme court shows time case of Ford against Dunmore from the F'ifteenthm district to have come to tine same end as was reached by the Prime.Guest case today. It too , resulted from a cointested election and the supreme judges became deadlocked as to the merits of the case.
